All Los Angeles Tours &amp; Excursions in 2026

Los Angeles Getty Center Guided Tour

We started this tour company after working for the other ''open top'' celebrity homes tour companies for over five years. And while those types of tours can be very fun and entertaining, we also saw first hand the short comings that can come with those types of tours as well. We started A View Of Luxury Private Tours to focus on smaller private tours for groups up to 5 people (6 if a child or smaller framed adult does not mind sitting in the middle seat.) who want to experience the classic ''Celebrities homes'' style tour in comfort and style with a guide that is 100% committed to giving YOUR group a informative and entertaining tour and not worrying about filling a bus or rushing to get back on time because the next group is already waiting. We encourage you to shop around and we are confident that once you see what we are offering vs the competition it will be an easy decision to come see the sights with us!

What are people saying about Los Angeles

Roxanne_R, Oct 2026

History of island

This 50minute adventure is well worth it. You learn lots of history about how Catalina came about things that are on the island people who have lived there or who still live there. I just thought that it was great experience. Savanna was a great to our guide very informative

Hollywood, Beverly Hills & Celebrity Homes Tour by Open Air Bus

Carley_M, Oct 2026

Family fun

The tour we took was two hours and perfect amount of time to see the top sites. Our guide was very interesting and kept us entertained through the entire tour. We have a ten and thirteen year old and they were happy as well. The two hour tour didn't get as close to the Hollywood sign as I would have liked but we still got to see it. And we had a little detour to see Taylor Swift's house which was a nice surprise.

Guided Whale Watching Tour from Long Beach

Phylicia_G, Oct 2026

Incredible experience

Absolutely amazing experience, we were blessed to be able to see a huge pod of dolphins who swam alongside us for a good while and then to top off the finishing of the tour was the beautiful whale sighting who gave us a little bit of a decent show. Such an incredible surprise and beautiful to see. Definitely worth the trip.

Full-Day Iconic Sights of LA, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Beaches and More

Diana_D, Oct 2026

Must see activity!

I’d say if you’re first time in LA, you must take this tour. I cannot imagine how to make such city overview comprehensively, quickly, efficiently within just 7-8 hours. Absolutely great job of the entire crew. Thanks to everyone for the positive mood, great history overview, tricks and tips to navigate in LA.

Hollywood, Beverly Hills and Celebrity Homes Tour by Open-Air Bus

Diane_E, Oct 2026

A Good Value!

It was a good value for the money. The bus shuttle was right on time and our driver, Tony was very fun and had a great personality! We made one stop where we could get out and see the Hollywood sign and stretch our legs. The 2 hours seems a good length as a 3 hour tour seems too long. The bus is "open air" so it is very windy and your hair gets blown around a lot, so ladies may want to bring a head scarf or put your hair in a ponytail. The bus was clean and you can bring a soda or drink on board as they have cupholders. Tony took us all around and we saw Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, the San Bernardino Valley, etc. I recommend this tour if you want to see a quick 2 hour overview of LA and the neighborhoods!

Los Angeles 3-Hour City Tour with 3 Stops

Korbin_M, Oct 2026

Thee greatest

I wasn’t sure while booking if this was the right tour since I’ve never booked in California. Also it was partially because of the transportation used which I later understood that it was needed to get close to the Hollywood sign. Tour guide was top notch. Smart, funny, entertaining. If you’re thinking about it, DO IT!!! Hands down one of the best tours I’ve ever been on.. Beverly Hills picture was awesome. Right amount of stops and everything..

LA, Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and Beach Tour with Hotel Pickup

Joann_M, Oct 2026

Very thorough tour

Shawn was our guide, he worked very hard to show us all the places listed, he even stopped at a few extra places, explained the history of LA and Hollywood! It was very enjoyable, unfortunately it was a very hot day, 100 degrees. The stop at Griffith Park was a little too long, a half hour, and it was so hot, no place to sit or be in shade, it took 5 minutes to snap a photo of the Hollywood sign, then we had to stand in the sun and wait for our driver to come back, it wasn’t really the driver’s fault, he was just following the schedule. I’m sure it would have been fine had it not been so very hot, but in all I would recommend this tour

Paramount Pictures Studio Tour

Annette_K, Sept 2026

Fabulous tour, and fun too

We chose this tour because of the screen in the van as it shows you the properties as you go which movies the houses have been inn and who owns them. It’s hard to remember as you go along all the information so to be able to link the houses to pictures on the screen is great. Also our guide, I think his name was David, was so funny but informative. He went above and beyond to give us the best time

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood

Johnny_R, Sept 2026

Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood Review: A Fun, Behind-the-Scenes Experience for Movie and TV Fans

The Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood was one of the best tours I have taken. We visited on Saturday, September 12, 2026, and I would give it 5 out of 5 stars. Even before check-in, the gift shop put us in a great mood. We love Friends, so finding its merchandise, along with items from other series we enjoy, was a great start. After check-in, we were split into groups for the tour. It was exciting to learn how movie and TV scenes are filmed and how sound is recorded. The tour featured references to Friends, Harry Potter, Batman, Superman, The Big Bang Theory, Argo, Ocean’s Eleven, Lucifer, and Shrinking. I will leave the details out so other visitors can discover them for themselves. We learned that filming was not happening during our weekend visit. That was a small letdown and makes me want to return another time. I also would have liked the guide to spend more time on productions from the last decade, although I still enjoyed the whole tour. If you love movies or TV and want to know how they are made, this tour is well worth the time and money. I definitely recommend it.

Mary_T, Sept 2026

Best tour Guide/Driver

We had Shawn as our guide/driver. He is very knowledgeable, cordial and entertaining. This tour touched all areas described on the website. We toured on a Saturday so the traffic wasn't bad and Shawn was able to slow down to allow us to take pictures. This tour is the best way to experience Los Angeles in a day.

Mulholland Trail Horseback Tour

Leana_P, Aug 2026

Horseback Riding Experience

We had a really great time on this one-hour horseback riding experience at the ranch! My horse was absolutely adorable, and the lady at the entrance was very kind and welcoming. One of the guides also kindly took some photos and videos of us, which was a really nice. One thing to keep in mind is that you cannot bring any bags with you, not even a small fanny pack, so I recommend wearing clothes with pockets to keep your phone with you. The only downside for me was the group size. There were around 20 people, which felt a little too large for this type of activity. A smaller group would have made the experience feel more personal and enjoyable. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend it !

Downtown LA Lights: Your Private Sunset and Night Helicopter Tour

Jeffrey_S, Apr 2026

Best experience

I had an amazing experience with Anthelion Helicopters! It was my first helicopter ride and definitely unforgettable. The views were insane and seeing the coastline and city from above was something I’ve never experienced before. The ride felt smooth and safe the whole time. Our pilot was super friendly, explained everything clearly, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. Check in was easy and organized. I would 100% recommend this to anyone looking for a unique experience or planning something special.
